Now smoking Hearth & Home White Night in a Paykoc Meerschaum Dr Watson - From Sherlock Holmes / Dr Watson two pipe set.
There was a post today in the forum, which asked how many pipe one have. I have 48 pipes, and have stopped buying pipes because I believe in quality and not quantity.
I only had three more pipes to buy, which would make the perfect size of my collection to 51. One of them is from an American Carver, whose work I admire a lot, and in my personal opinion she is is the most talented carver in the world today. Whenever I tried to buy her pipes before, it was already sold. Today I gathered the motivation to contact her directly for a commission, pre selected a working pipe of hers, agreed on a price and decided to finalize a contract on Monday.
Knowing myself it is a 100%
chance that I will buy the pipe on Monday, so hopefully one more to my collection. Since it is a commission it will be tuned to to my preferences, and that’s an added bonus
